At The Hope Group, our bold mission is simple and powerful: 10,000 ACE-Impacted Guests From Crisis to Capability (College, Career, or Calling) By 2035. We don’t use the word “patients” or “clients” — we call those we serve guests. Because healing begins with dignity. Because everyone deserves to feel welcomed, seen, and valued. Our work isn’t just about treatment — it’s about transformation.
This vision began in 2011, when our founder Blaine Hofeling walked through the halls of a struggling residential treatment center. There, a scared teenager looked him in the eyes and said words that would change everything: "Please help us". That moment ignited a movement. Blaine founded Havenwood, a place built not for containment, but for thriving. A place where hope is real, and futures are rebuilt. Today, The Hope Group continues that mission through a growing family of behavioral health programs, each rooted in clinical excellence, compassion, and a deep belief in human potential.
At The Hope Group, we serve individuals and families navigating the complex impacts of trauma—especially those affected by Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). Our guests include teens, young adults, and their families who are often in crisis, seeking a path toward stability, healing, and long-term growth. Across our four specialized subsidiaries, we offer tailored services that meet people where they are—whether they need residential care, outpatient therapy, coaching, education, or ongoing support. We exist for those who’ve tried other paths without lasting results, and are ready for care that is personal, data-informed, and truly transformational.
